They found weapons from Hospitals security and a couple of cans of WD-40, no weapons of mass destruction. I am shocked
The IDF has put out a broadcast from Al Shifa hospital which details a tour of the radiology and mri departments where they have uncovered multiple grab and go bags, weapons, and a laptop with dvds and supposed intelligence. This is on the IDF YouTube channel. The tour was conducted by Commander Jonathan Conricas.
Where are they going to GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's a SHAME Lord help the innocent of Gaza!
The lies are suffocating
The Western media knows that it is lying, the Israeli army is known for lying, and the world knows that it is false. This media has become a laughing stock
These premature babies shall be protected at all costs and shall NEVER be dragged into this war.
BBC Issued Apology
This is information warfare!
"As BBC News covered initial reports that Israeli forces had entered Gaza’s main hospital, we said that “medical teams and Arab speakers” were being targeted. This was incorrect and misquoted a Reuters report. We should have said IDF forces included medical teams and Arabic speakers for this operation. We apologise for this error, which fell below our usual editorial standards. The correct version of events was broadcast minutes later and we apologised for the mistake on air later in the morning."

“Protected Status: According to the Geneva Conventions, hospitals, and other medical facilities are afforded special protection during armed conflicts. This protection is CONTINGENT ON THESE FACILITIES BEING USED EXCLUSIVELY FOR MEDICAL PURPOSES.”
Civilian Status: Hospitals that are exclusively used for the care of the sick and wounded AND DO NOT ENGAGE IN ANY HOSTILE ACTIVITIES maintain their civilian status.
Evacuation of the Wounded and Sick: PARTIES INVOLVED IN ARMED CONFLICTS ARE OBLIGATED TO ALLOW AND FACILITATE THE EVACUATION OF THE WOUNDED AND SICK from areas of fighting to properly equipped medical facilities.
An explanation of the concepts involved with hospitals located in war zones.
“Protected Status: “CONTINGENT ON THESE FACILITIES BEING USED EXCLUSIVELY FOR MEDICAL PURPOSES.”
Shafia Hospital is the central “command and control” center for the Hamas terrorists organization. Hamas does not use Shafia for medical purposes. The center is used for the planning and killing of people, especially Israelis. The top commanders of Hamas made a conscious and deliberate decision to put doctors, nurses, patients, and support staff in harm's way by building their center in a sensitive and humanitarian location.
IRAN provided the money for the center and had no objections concerning the location. No authority of any type made any effort or provided any communication that this was a violation of international law. But then again, terrorists do not abide by international laws. A grievous omission by the United Nations.
Civilian Status: “Hospitals that DO NOT ENGAGE IN ANY HOSTILE ACTIVITIES maintain their civilian status.”
Building a command center which has for years planned many attacks against military and civilian targets in Israel is considered a “Hostile Activity”. Hamas terrorists should evacuate the center and cease stealing the gas and other supplies needed for the hospital to provide services.
Evacuation of the Wounded and Sick: Israel has provided fuel for the hospital. Israel has offered to transport infants to safer locations. Hamas has done nothing but steal fuel and supplies from the hospital. Hamas does not will not provide services to the Palestinian people.
Instead Hamas invaded a sovereign country and killed 1400 Israelis. This put the Palestinian people in harm’s way, when an expected retaliation occurred.
Hamas built hundreds of miles of underground tunnels underneath sensitive areas, including hospitals, schools, mosques, apartment buildings, and other locations. Weapons, military supplies, rockets, and missiles were stored and brought out of the tunnels next to the buildings to be used in the war. This puts the Palestinian people in harm’s way.
Hamas provides no safe location for the Palestinians when war actions are taking place. Plenty of miles in underground tunnels are available, but not for civilians. This puts the Palestinian people in harm’s way.
Pamphlets were dropped by Israel requesting Palestinians move from northern Gaza to a more southern area for safety. Hamas encouraged the Palestinians to ignore the warnings and stay put. This put the Palestinian people in harm’s way.
Hamas built a large and complex “command and control” center under a major hospital, Shafia Hospital. Hamas top leadership was located there. What a difficult operation with patient care and running a terrorist organization from the same location. This puts the Palestinian people in harm’s way.
Israel organized a corridor for Palestinians to escape. Hamas did not help the Palestinians to escape. Instead they were shooting at their own people to stop the evacuation. The more Palestinian bodies from the war, especially of women and children, the greater the propaganda gains for Hamas. This puts the Palestinian people in harm’s way.
Hamas terrorists abducted about 200 hostages from Israel during the October 7,2023 invasion of a sovereign nation. They are probably in underground tunnels, to be used in negotiations. Therefore, Israel has to be very careful in investigating every tunnel system in order not to harm the hostages. This will prolong the war, the devastation, and the deaths to both civilians and military. This puts the Palestinian people in harm’s way.
The Rafah border crossing took about 3 weeks to open due to all the details of the operation. The Rafah crossing is subject to frequent closures by Egypt, often for security reasons (think smuggling by Hamas). These closures have a devastating impact on the lives of Palestinians in Gaza, who rely on the crossing for food, medicine, and fuel. These delays put the Palestinian people in harm’s way.
There are probably more examples, but you get the message. The Hamas Terror organization operates under its own set of rules and terrorism survival is not compatible with supporting the Palestinian people. So when you see protesters marching in the streets shouting; “Free Palestine”, think a little harder. They should be saying: “Free Palestine From Hamas”.
Seems the doctors/ medical staff may be working with or under threat from Hamas… looking a gift horse in the mouth and not accepting fuel???
Also are they digging a mass grave or more tunnels in the hospital
They know that there are no armed men in the hospital. Their goal is to make the Gaza Strip uninhabitable, so that the population can be deported and the land occupied as they did in previous times..
Those people in Jerusalem are CANAANITES and JEBUSITES, they are fake Jews and wicked people.
Dont all hospitals in America have security rooms
This has been Hamas' overarching plan all along; use babies and infants as human shields and as propaganda tool. They themselves admit they don't care about their population. Stop building bunkers under hospitals.
This genocide in Gaza was mentioned twenty years ago, Imran Hosein 2003 https://youtube.com/watch?v=2uO0x3gple4&feature=shared
It breaks my heart for the babies.
But hospital has been told to move because of fighting
I will pray for you all
I'm South African for Isael
Amazing how MSNBC is mouthpiece of Military Propaganda.
Guys, I get more unbiased truthful news from Israeli Media.
No Hamas quarters ever found after killing so many civilians in and around the Hospitals and while doctors now are being arrested!!!!
American media is dying, really. Trump was right all along.
Every time they say there is hamas in the hospitals there turns out not to be. Just an excuse to commit genocide
Watch it now they enter the hospital for more than two days, I'm pretty sure they are filming a new fabrication movie to send to us to watch again lies after lies
Tell iran to supply d material instead of rockets
Israel uses the guise of humanitarian aid to divert attention from its ongoing blockade of Gaza and to portray itself as a compassionate and generous actor on the international stage. This tactic has been criticized as a cynical attempt to deflect criticism of Israel's human rights record and to maintain the status quo in Gaza.
Israel claimed to have delivered "urgent supplies" to Gaza, but the aid package turned out to be woefully inadequate, consisting of only 20 trailers, half of which contained unimportant items for addressing the humanitarian crisis. Despite the paltry nature of the aid package, Israel trumpeted its delivery to the international community, seeking to project an image of benevolence and concern for the well-being of Gazans.
The international community must be vigilant in scrutinizing Israel's claims of humanitarian aid and must demand that it lift the blockade of Gaza and allow for the unfettered flow of essential goods and services to the Palestinian population
LOL ..of course the US has seen evidence just like Biden has seen Hamas beheading babies
Gaza Genocide committed by Israel
Why should the doctors use a young boy to carry a baby. Isn't staged. For sure I don't understand 😮😮
yet not even once anyone has called for Hamas to surrender….
Rest
13 hours have passed since the IDF forces invaded AL-Shifa Hospital in Gaza, which is full of patients, health care workers, and thousands of people who fled their homes in the north to this hospital as they thought it could be a "safe place".
13 hours and the spokesperson of the IDF declared that they didn't find hostages or any armed person. Israeli military tanks fill the hospital's yard, and snipers shoot anyone who is trying to get out. 30 people are now martyrs, thanks to Israel all of them are civilians who feared the invasion and tried to get out of the hospital. Israel bombed the stores of medications and medical supplies.
The occupation army is detaining more than 200 Palestinians in the hospital courtyard.
30 civilians have been taken blindfolded after being obligated to take off their clothes.
Imagine the fear thousands there feel as the IDF soldiers invade with their weapons while there is no one to stand by their faces to fight, simply because there are no armed people in the hospital.
It is worth mentioning that Al-Shifa Hospital is besieged by the Israeli Forces for 5 days. People there have no food and water.
Do thousands of Israeli soldiers need all of this time to invade the hospital and search for hostages?
There is plenty of time to create a fake play.
